Indiana AG sues state hospital for violating privacy of girl who traveled from Ohio for abortion
Fox News
Indiana Attorney General Rodd Rokita claimes doctors violated HIPAA laws by publicizing a 10-year-old girls' trip from Ohio to Indiana for an abortion.
"Neither the 10-year-old nor her mother gave the doctor authorization to speak to the media about their case," the lawsuit states. "Rather than protecting the patient, the hospital chose to protect the doctor, and itself."

The lawsuit names Indiana University Health and IU Healthcare Associates, claiming they violated HIPAA laws.
